I have known Sandeep since my college days, and we have been close friends for close to three decades now! Sandeep, who is a fitness enthusiast, was instrumental in inspiring me to write this book. I decided to launch a podcast first and the book is in the baking! Over the years, I have always seen Sandeep follow a very disciplined life and fitness has always been an integral part of it. He is a marathoner & an ultra-runner and running is now a part of his daily routine. This is something that inspired me when I embarked on my own transformational journey and prompted me to get him to share his experiences. Sandeep is an alumnus of The Bhopal School of Social sciences and NMIMS, Mumbai, and is an international aviation veteran. He works with a reputed international airline as the Head of Finance for Asia-Pacific & the Middle East, based in Gurgaon.While Sandeep was always a sportsperson, his fitness journey actually started in 2014. Since then, he has run several Half & Full Marathons and Ultra Runs. Sandeep has this dream to accomplish the Ironman challenge someday and had started his preparations to run his first Triathlon until he was plagued with a heel injury towards the end of 2021. He has, however, kept his dream alive and continues to train. It is his indomitable spirit, his will to keep fighting against all odds & positivity that prompted me to share his journey with listeners. In the podcast, apart from his fitness philosophy, Sandeep also speaks about his diet, how his better half motivated him to embark on this journey, and the key role a group of his ‘special’ friends & co-runners played in inspiring him to deliver his best.
